The horse was in pasture during the heavy storm a few nights ago, and It is thought it stood hinder a tree and received the partial $ffoct of a flash of lightning. It was apparently all right the next morning, and Mr. Herron drove it over his milk foute. The animal weakened on the road, however, and the owner had lunch difficulty in driving it to the farjji- The same day the horse's head commenced to swell and Mr. Herron was Able to see marks of the lightning. He tried to alleviate the animal's suffering, but was unable to do so and after suffering for some days it died. sian Jews. tions is Favorable. Contracts. in Session.

Philadelphia, Aug. 15.—Arrests which may include men whose reputations up to this time have been unsullied ore likely to follow the Investigation into fur contracts and supplies In the government Schuylkill arsenal which is being conducted by Major K. T. Strong, acting under direct and special orders from the acting secretury of war. The Investigation has caused a tremendous sensation, and so far as lie has gone Major Strong Is convinced that the government has been defrauded of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 15.—A free exchange of views on the subject of the condition and treatment of the Jews in Russia was had In a conference between Mr. Witte, Baron Rosen and Oscar Straus, Jacob H. Hchlff, Isaac N. Seligman and Adolph Lewlsohn of New York and Adolph Kraus of Chicago. The statement was made by the delegation calling on the Russian plenipotentiaries that nothing tangible resulted from the discussion, but future benefit was looked for. The financial condition of Russia was not mentioned in the discussion and was not entered upou. Scranton, Pa., Aug. 15.—The convention of contract miners of the Erie and Hillside Coal and Iron companies resumed its deliberations this morning on difficulties over check docking boss and check welghman. Portsmouth, N. H., Ang. 15.— Although very rapid progress was made with the pence negotiations, three of the twelve articles which constitute the Japanese conditions of peace having been agreed to by M. "Witte and Baron Rosea on behalf of Kussia, neither of the two articles, the cession of Sakhalin and the payment of an indemnity, to which M. Witte in his reply returned an absolute negative was reached. The crisis, therefore, is still to come. It Is understood on high authority that the discussion of Sakhalin and the indemnity will be postponed until all the less important items hare been disposed of. A person connected with one of the peace missions intimated that this course would greatly brighten the outlook, saying. "The longer the conference continues the greater will be the likelihood of a successful outcome." Gold & porcelain crowns. Dr. MooaCj BULLETS ON GROUND. DIED OF STARVATION. WITH SOLEMN SERVICE Not an iota of information Is being made public; in fact, the delegates and maintaining a discreet silence. It was learned, however, that an effort was made this morning by a committee of 20, of which James Hennigan, of Pittston, is chairman, to get in communication with W. A. May, general manager of the coal companies, to arrange for a conference tor discussing the grievances. Dozens of Loaded Cartridges Outside 'Squire's Office. Distressing Case Brought to Light. Young Women Join Order of Immaculate Heart. Were Probably Dropped During n Shinned by Iter Husband's Crime, The grievances have not yet all been presented to the convention. As each of the delegates presented the grievances of their respctlve collieries this morning they were taken up by the convention and the merits discussed. When all have been heard they will be formulated In bulk and presented to the company officials for consideration. It is regarded as a despicable swindle throughout, because the furs, principally the pelts of muskrats used for gauntlets and head coverings of soldiers exposed to the rigors of cold weather, should be of the best quality. Woman Living Near White Ila- Straus' Statement. Mr. Straus made the following statement:Beautiful Service In the Cliapel of Hearing, by Italians, Who Fear- veil Kef 11 wed to Appotil for Mount St. Mary's Seminary Tilts ed Arrest—Two Hearings "Mr. Wltte explained with much frankness the eondition of the Jewish population of Itussia, while the American gentlemen endeavored to explain to the Russian gentlemen the state of public opinion in the United States and to impress them with the impatience on the part of the American people with the restrictive and suppressive laws exercised by the Russian government against its Jewish subjects.Morning—Among Those lte- Held In Connection With Help and Starved .celved Were Several From an Alley Ball to Deatli, Tills Vicinity An unusual incident thut created little less than a sensation occurred this morning at the office of Alderman Golden during a hearing. Within the space of a few minutes the ground outside the office bccame literally covered with loaded revolver cartridges. This strange occurrence took place while the hearing was in progress and those Interested in the case were at a loss to account, either for the presence of the bullets or for the reason that they were scattered promiscuously about the ground. Some suggested that it must be a threat and others that it was an accident. The real reason came out at the conclusion of the hearing. Among those examined by Major Strong were Robert Charlton and K. F. Beckett, assistant inspectors nt tlie arsenal. Charlton testified that he never passed goods that were not up to the specifications. He said that a firm of garment makers had attempted to bribe hiin by offering him #2,000 if he would be easy on them in his inspection of their goods. He refused the money and informed the commandant of the arsenal of the affair. Charlton also said that he had been approached several times by the contractors. Poverty in its most pitiable form was disclosed when Frank Shetzel, an officer of the White Haven Relief association. found Mrs. Oliver Horn dead in her home at Tannery, two babies dying, and four other children too weak to spread an alarm. There was ample evidence of the cause of the mother's death. The children were almost naked. Not a crust of bread was In the house, .not even a drop of milk for the starving babe*. Heath had appeased the hunger of the mother. Everything about the place betrayed the direst poverty and showed that the woman must have endured tortures for many months. A beautiful and impressive servico was held this morning in the chapel of Mount St. Mary's seminary, Scranton, when 11 young women received the black veil of the Order of the Immaculate Heart and 11 other,young women received the white veil and entered upon their novitiate. Among the young ladies in the latter body were Miss Genevieve McCauley, daughter of Mrs. James McCauley, of Rxeter: Miss Mary Gill, of Inkerman, and Miss Mary Gibbons, of Venango, O., formerly of this city. Mr. Sato told the correspondents that he had come to Portsmouth hopeful of a successful Issue of the negotiations and that nothing had occurred to alter his optimism. No definite action will be taken by the convention until they receive a reply from the company officials. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, The Three Articles Disposed Of.

Rev. Monsignor Coffey, of Carbondale, took part. The chapel of the seminary was beautifully decorated with flowers and candles and was filled to overflowing by the friends of the young people. Bishop Hoban read mass and then the vows were taken by those to be professed, followed by the ceremony of receiving the postulants as novices. Those who were received wore beautiful white gowns and wreaths of flowers. Following is a list of the young ladies who joined the order: First.—Itussia's recognition of Japan's "preponderating influence" and special position In Korea, which Russia henceforth agrees Is outside of her sphere of influence, Japan binding herself to recognize the suzerainty of the reigning family, but with the right to give advice and assistance to improve the civil administration of the empire. Inspector Beckett suld tlint be had frequently put his stamp of app«Dvul on goods which he knew should have been marked Inferior. He did this, he said, by orders of his superiors. Ho was an old soldier, he said, and always obeyed orders. That the case has not reached public notice before is directly due to the mortification and sense of shame which Mrs. Horn suffered by the arrest and conviction of her husband about a year ago. charged with a heinous crime upon his 14-year-old daughter. The trouble was caused by an alley ball and terminated In three arrests and hearings and considerable danger for a time that there would be a riot in the vicinity of Cork Lane. The prosecutor in the first case was Albert Raphael, an Italian, and the defendant was Thomas Kuane. Ruane was engaged in a hand ball game in Tlerney's court, when the ball fell Into Raphael's yard. The players were about to go into the yard for the sphere when Raphael appeared on the scene and »• tyem „?.o keep outside the fefice. * As some of the players showed a disposition to secure the ball In spite of him he secured a large fence picket with which to enforce, if necessary, his right to keep others out of his yard. It was testified at the hearing that Ruane at this juncture said he would go into the yard in spile of Raphael and that he secured a large stone, which he held In one hand, while he started to climb the fence. According to the story told the alderman, when Ruane got on the fence, Raphael swung viciously at him with the club and then turned to run. Ruane threw the stone, striking Raphael on the head and cutting a large gash. a large number of foreigners were about the place, as well as a large number of American-born residents, and It seemed for a time as if a riot might follow the trouble. Such did not occur, however, and affairs remained quiet until this morning, when Raphael appeared before Alderman Golden and had a warrant Issued for the arrest of Ruane, accusing him of aggravated assault and battery.

Nevertheless some of the members of the delegatlou did not hesitate to say that if the condition of the Jews in Russia were ameliorated, and they were placed on an equality with other Russians, Russia would have no trouble In raising a loan in the United States to lie used either for the continuation of the war or for the payment of an Indemnity.

Washington, Aug. 14.—Tlio Star says that there has been a til# sbakcnip among the revenue agents of the Internal revenue service, but just how fur It has pone Is a matter of speculation. It Is stated, however, that four well known revenue agents huve been usked for their resignations, and at least two of the four have come here for a personal conference with Commissioner Yerkes of the Internal revenue bureau. These are Captain Charles H. Ingram, In charge of New England work, stationed at Boston, and C. II. Burg, who has had a section of the southwest under his charge and has been located In Texas. The names of the other two agents could not be learned. There never was any question about the acceptance on the part of M.

The cession of the railroad, the building of which cost Russia an immense sum, estimated by some at between $100,000,000 and $200,000,000, Is to China. Japan and China therefore will arrange between themselves the method by which the former Is to be remunerated, and through this financial operation Japan might have a very considerable portion of her claim for the "expenses of the war"' liquidated. The railroad Is ostensibly the property of the Itusso- Chinese bank, although built by government money advanced through the bank and since Its completion operated, managed and policed by the Russian government. Japan cannot take the railroad herself. To place herself In Russia's shoes regarding the railroad would be militarily to control the destinies of the throe provinces of Manchuria, which she has promised to return to China. The officer upon reaching the house found the body of the mother on the bed and the twins huddled at her breast.

Will be Held at Valley View Park Next As the general public knows, the weather last evening was uncomfortable and unpleasantly cool, and grew more chilly until midnight when it was comparatively cold. For a few minutes a miniature snow storm raged, but was not of sufficient scope to canopy the streets with fleecy flakes. The police and belated pedestrians were amazed to find It snowing in the midst of summer and cold shivers went through their spinal columns as they looked on the falling of the beautiful. The fleecy product did not remain on the streets long enough to show Its immaculateness, being quickly converted Into moisture.—Hazleton Standard. Saturday Afternoon—The Pro- gramme. The relief society immediately took steps to provide aid and the poor authorities assumed charge of the dorpse. The house Is located in such a remote district that few persons had occasion to pass there and no on© seems to have known of the awful suffering of the stricken family during the past several months. The revival of the Caledonian Games, which were in days gone by an annual event of much importance here, is arousing considerable Interest. The Pittston Caledonian Club has arranged a fine programme of athletic events to be held at Valley- View Park next Saturday afternoon, and it is likely that a great crowd of people will be attracted to the park. The programme will be as follows: Commissioner Yerkes would not discuss the matter. Those in position to know say that Commissioner Yerkes has personally been watching the work of the reveuue agents, who are really the secret Investigating officials of the revenue bureau, and has concluded that some of them have not been doing thejr duty in detecting some of the things gplng on. The olliee of the alderman and the surrounding yard was crowded while the hearing was being held. About 40 Italians were present und there were a like number of Americans. Raphael was represented by Attorney W. H. Gillespie. While the hearing was taking place. Constable Qulgley appeared on the scene with a warrant for Raphael and another Italian, charging them with surety of tho peace and threats to kill. The constable entered the oillce of the constable and served the warrants. He came out shortly afterwards and i# was then that the bullets were found. It Is thought that the many Italians about feared they were to be arrested on some charge and that they feared to be taken into custody with concealed weupons on their persons so they all emptied their revolvers, leaving the cartridges on the ground. From the number of bullets picked up it seemed evident that a majority of the foreigners about the place were armed with revolvers. They were evidently prepared for a light. MAN ATTACKED.
